Venice Plein Air... simply to celebrate the historical of our Venice area and to keep it recorded in the arts... and for the arts to continue to be represented by her artists in the area. if you have an interest to Plein Air Paint, be sure to check out the PAF calendar of events at PleinAirFlorida.org whom we umbrella under for many possibilities of Florida Plein Air in our area.
